Why This FirmThis firm sits among the UK’s top accountancy firms and is the UK independent member of one of the largest professional services networks in the world.

The role covers OMB restructuring projects such as mergers, demergers, acquisitions, tax due diligence and succession planning, alongside international matters including residency, the FIG regime, the TRF, and offshore trust structures, plus inheritance tax planning. You’ll lead on significant HMRC matters, including complex enquiries and disclosures, provide technical oversight across the portfolio, and play a senior role in mentoring junior staff and supporting business development.
What You’ll Need*CTA, ACA or ACCA qualified or equivalent
*Ready to step up into a Senior Manager role, or already operating at that level within Private Client Tax
*Strong technical grounding, with the confidence to lead complex advisory and planning projects
*Proven ability to supervise and develop junior staff

What’s On OfferThis role comes with a generous 33 days’ holiday inclusive of bank holidays, with the option to buy or sell up to 5 additional days, alongside agile working built around core hours of 10am to 2pm and two home-working days each week. There’s a discretionary Outstanding Performance Award and other recognition initiatives, a structured succession-planning programme, and a free, confidential 24-hour Employee Assistance Programme with unlimited counselling and virtual GP access for you and your family.
